This PhD will prepare you for a career applying research to transport behaviours. At the same time, it will help prepare the UK transport sector for the uncertain world ahead.
Working with DfT and with experts in psychology and human-computer interaction, you will figure out how car driving practices change in emergency situations and what can be done to avoid accidents, keep traffic flowing during mass evacuations and maintain access routes for blue-light services. You will also gain experience of working with and alongside emergency response planners in central government. [...]
